just cant take anyone seriously that shows up to site or anywhere besides the beach etc in flip flops.

The best drywall on a project is no drywall on a project.

I can’t believe how many people are being assholes here. This was super helpful!

[@worlow8985]

Knows her way around drywall. Needs to know her way around a pair of work boots 😂

[@Polar_Ted]

I'm just a DIY home owner but I prefer the paper faced metal for the small jobs I've done around the house.

[@chuckmcvicker2353]

A discussion around the use of bullnose corner bead would have been helpful.

[@peehandshihtzu]

I can tell you with absolute confidence it is not the kids or the dog that will trash your walls. They will have their wear spots and learning moments. It is the wheel chair from the old man learning to navigate it that will damage your drywall the most. Doors and casings too, especially. :)

[@AdamCarbone1]

What about for arches?

[@kirkdunn1379]

if you nail the bead to the framing its locked to house movement, if you tape it on it isnt.......different areas probably favor different ones.....ive never had a problem with any of them, if a 100 ton house is going to move there really isnt much you can do.....

[@plumsmuglers]

Just use Angle Iron.

Probably one of the most solid dual outro “On The BUILD Show”’s. Go see more of Drywall Shorty at

This is what make Build Show the absolute best, most informative show of all time!

[@chadevjen7091]

Just used some paper/metal corners. First time drywalling. Easy peasy! Turned out great!

[@CavitySlidersUSA]

Matt and Lydia are definitely two people I want in my corner (bead)!

[@slomotrainwreck]

Good guest Matt! Lydia certainly seems to know her way around dry wall. 👍

[@mpxz999]

I love your channel Matt ❤

[@DeadlyPlatypus]

I've always preferred straight PVC.

[@jessem8928]

Thanks Matt, this video was needed.

[@unrelativistic]

They also have an inside corner paper-faced metal. It is fantastic for getting perfect inside corners. MUCH quicker than folding tape and fighting with it. And since we have movement here due to soils, it has (for 5 years so far) kept away any cracking in the corners.

Excellent video!! Personally I've gone back to metal corner bead. But that's just me. Good to know about alternatives.
